Basic Feline Restraint

Spooky has to be one of the most mellow and chill cats. Good job Spooky!

[@faith5563]

Your darling Spooky is way too compliant to be compared to an actual warrior of the tribe.

If I attempted this wth my boy, my arms would be shredded lol. Ms Spooky deserves an Oscar!!

[@mommakimmins5554]

Spooky is an adorable name and she's such a good girl through the whole demonstration, even though she clearly wasn't thrilled

I'm president of Spooky's fan club and she did phenomenally.

what a gorgeous tuxedo cat with a beautiful blaze. thanks for the tips on how to restrain a cat for blood draws - i feel like i could use some of these techniques for eye drops.

[@TheJohnmb46]

That is one chilled cat!

Please demonstrate on a crazy cat, because that's what most of us are dealing with lol 😆

[@cmays209]

Seriously :( my cat is insane and I cannot get her IV bandage off, and it’s cutting off her circulation.

[@twilightdream1000]

Exactly!

[@makotableh1856]

I know a chill cat is perfect for educational purposes. But boi I've seen all of this with my little demon (as the vets named her, it suits her real name -Lilith- too), and it almost look like a wrestling fight 😂 in our case scruff doesn't work at all, but blankets (not towels, she rips them apart) and neck handling works fine. Thanks for the clear explanations, even tho I've seen this stuff I didn't know how it fully worked :)

[@OxanaKlachkova]

thank you very much.it was i am looking for my last weeks!

[@PotatoPlaysThePotatoQueen]

[@alee5523]

Super helpful! Thank you 😊

[@Scott-jn2xr]

Whenever i'm restraining a cat for a back leg draw I normally end up scruffing and holding the back leg off with the karate chop. I don't want a patient to be upset and I know that scruffing is not the best method of restraint. But i'm newish and I've been bitten once before and have been a little scared ever since because I did end up having to go on antibiotics lol. Is the method of holding both front paws and having your arm on neck really that bite proof? I always feel that if the cat was fractious enough it could totally just adjust its head enough to bite me. Just looking for a little advice :)

[@netflixandchinchilla]

Cats are masters of twisting around and biting the crap out of your hands. I have worked with a few veterinarians and none of them ever suggested holding the head down like this for a cat unless you're going to use a cat muzzle or a towel/blanket to cover their head. I do agree that scruffing isn't always the best tool, but if it were me I'd feel a lot safer with something between me and their teeth if I was going to use this method.

[@lorijane2003]

The method of holding the head with an arm will get u bit real quick with a cat that’s not cooperative like the one they used in the demonstration. A cat can 100% still bite u that way. If u think the cat might bite then u need to scruff it, use a muzzle, or cover the head with a towel and then hold its head with your arm. And if it’s really fractious I would personally use drugs. Getting torn up by a cat is the worst. I’d rather deal with an angry dog any day.

Hoo what relaxed kitty 🐱 model 🐱🐱

[@lorirodriguez2388]

Good job spooky good job sweetie

[@user-vj1fm6oy5q]

Wouldnt the c hold under the chin put the holder at risk of getting bit? The vet I work with always tells me not to hold under the chin because it the cat slips its head out it will bite your hand. Not saying it is wrong just trying to learn! Im pretty enw at my job so I want to get better at cat restraints since it is my biggest weakness, thank you!

[@juliac3933]

Is there a way to place a cat in lateral recumbency by yourself without scruffing

[@chronicler2313]

I just want to pet the kitteh!

[@jcwittig]

I have a very fractious cat. As soon as I open the door to the best office he starts a A very low quiet growl, begins to hiss, & then he shows you his teeth. It's interesting though he will strike out at anyone that is coming into his a very secure territorial bubble and it's impossible to get him out of his carrier because he defends it to the end. Even though he strikes out his growls bites he never draws blood on me from me. He will go after everyone else in the room with full force but for some reason he does exactly behavior to me but has never drawn blood with me. He also is very defensive and territorial about anyone that comes towards me but only in the vet's office. Not sure of my cats normal or not?? They usually have to put in under a general to cut his nails. I was wondering is this a behavior that he has escalated from a trauma situation? Or is this just how he is? As soon as I put him in my arms and carry him to the door he's a happy camper. Is that normal??

[@Lexillios]

I have to put an ointment in his chin. Idk how I'll be able to do it

The first two restraints are great but work better on a dog. If the cat were aggressive it could of still been able to bite her. Other then that very informative!

I need to irrigate and bandage a tail wound (near the anus) daily. Very sweet, small kitty who won't bite but will thrash. Any tips for securing him? We'll try the side hold since that looks like it might work best. Thanks!

This is a good video on how not to restrain a cat. My vet does it so much better. This looks more like things for a dog. That doesn’t work the same for a cat, especially when they’re not calm like this one
